Chapter 343

Why didn‘t she realize sooner that Garrett could be so annoying?

“Stop yelling, okay?” Laney looked at him impatiently. The more Garrett behaved like this, the more her heart softened.

After thinking for a few seconds, she decided to throw caution to the wind.

“Free meals are always cheap. I already said that we should forget this ever happened and just move on. Don‘t you understand?” Garrett put his dignity aside and forced a smile.

“I don‘t care if you think I‘m cheap. Let me escort you before my ‘value‘ increases.” Laney didn‘t like hearing this from him. She frowned and said resolutely, “We can‘t be together, okay? If you keep pestering me, I‘ll get sick of you.”

Hearing this, Garrett fell silent.

After a while, he asked in a low voice, “Are you saying that this was nothing but a one night stand?”

Laney pulled her hand back, picked up her things, and turned around without answering him.

Finally, when she reached the door, she paused for a second and said, “Yes, that‘s exactly what I‘m saying. I hope we never meet again, Mr. Harding.”

After saying that, she walked out of the room and slammed the door, leaving a dazed Garrett alone inside

The second Laney stepped out of the club, the cool breeze chilled her to the bone. She rubbed her arms and ran to the nearest convenience store to buy an umbrella. As she was about to pay, she saw a mother with her child nearby.

The child seemed to want to buy the candy bar on the shelf, so he reached out to take it. However, the mother immediately patted his hand and shook her head.

“You already have a cavity, little one. You can’t have sweets until the dentist fills it.”

Having been stopped, the child immediately burst into tears. The mother shot Laney an apologetic smile and pulled the little tyke out of the store. The cashier smiled helplessly.
